The invention relates to a device for affixing cutter drums on an apparatus designed to cut trenches in the ground. The driver includes a revolving plate 4 disposed perpendicular to its axis and to the end of the latter, the plate having on its periphery a convex polygonal shape 9. A cutter drum 8 is provided with a portion 8a including a central hollow of concave polygonal shape 10 corresponding to the convex polygonal shape 9 of the plate 4 and of slightly greater dimensions. Bolts 11 unite the cutter drum 8 to the said plate 4 such that the rotational driving of the cutter drum 8 by the plate is performed through the medium of the aforesaid polygonal surfaces 9, 10 which come into engagement with one another.

Device for affixing cutter drums to an apparatus intended for cutting

A cutting machine for cutting trenches in the ground, including a flat bottom face portion for supporting a pair of motor blocks; two motor blocks, with parallel axes, adapted to mount half-drum cutters; each motor block comprising a central vertical keel projecting downwardly from a horizontal top plate; connection means securing each motor block top plate to said bottom face; the inner edge of each top plate being provided with a beveled surface; an abutment member having parallel beveled edges complementary in shape to the beveled edge of each top plate; means mounting said abutment member to the central portions of said bottom surface; locking means urging the beveled edge of each top plate against the beveled edges of said abutment member.
